Chalcedony stimulates lymph flow and helps break down water retention in tissue (oedema). It is meant to help reduce swelling of the lymph nodes and with inflammation. Chalcedony is said to create an optimistic zest for life, protect against nightmares and restless sleep. It gives calm, serenity and patience. Chalcedony helps you speak more openly and more easily about problems and worries. It grants more self-confidence and is also often called a “speaker’s stone”, so people who need to talk a lot or who want to improve their rhetoric should carry this stone with them. Especially for children, it helps them develop their own language and protects them from stuttering. It is meant to support you with inhibitions and stage fright.

On the physical level, chalcedony supports disorders in the lungs and respiratory tract, but also in the throat and pharynx. It has a positive effect on the hormone and mammary glands, in weather sensitivity and in eye conditions. It should also support sore throat, cough, hoarseness, nervousness, stuttering, and hormone disorders (menopause). It helps with fever, purulent wounds and varicose veins. It stimulates lymph activity and, through this, has a positive/decongesting effect on the bloodstream, which may also help to ease high blood pressure. It has a cooling effect, which also benefits people with high blood pressure. When placed on the eyes, it can relax them pleasantly and cool tired, burning eyes.


Ocean chalcedony helps resolve conflicts and increases resilience. It also brings serenity, encourages trust, and ensures a pleasant sleep. It is especially suitable for people who are looking for or starting a fresh beginning (starting school, moving house, job search, separation, new partnership). On the physical level, it supports digestion, strengthens the immune system, helps lymph nodes and oedema subside and stimulates lymph flow.
